One Battle After Another is one of the most talked-about movies of 2025, but some people don't seem to care about the quality of the movie, but rather how much money it makes. Paul Thomas Anderson's big-budget action debut received rave reviews when it opened in theaters in September, earning a 95% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes and an A CinemaScore from audiences. The ambitious endeavor from the acclaimed filmmaker was always going to be a gamble for Warner Bros., which has been having an incredible year at the box office. That said, it is reportedly going to lose a surprising amount of money for the studio.
